Ron Artest Interview Delights the Internet [VIDEOS]

What do you get when you combine one the NBA's most colorful and eccentric players, a microphone and a championship victory for the Los Angeles Lakers? One hell of a post-game interview and press conference, that's what.

Last night, Lakers forward Ron Artest couldn't contain his excitement as his team secured the NBA championship over the Boston Celtics in a thrilling game seven. The result was a legendary post-game interview where Artest thanked "everybody in my hood," his psychiatrist, and countless others, then exploded in joy over winning his first NBA championship.

That wasn't the end of it though; the Artest show continued with a ridiculous press conference. You knew it wasn't going to be a normal press conference when Artest grabbed a box of Wheaties and screamed at the random journalists "behind the laptops" to acknowledge him.

The resulting videos have gone viral on YouTube, Twitter, and Google. They are top trends on almost every social media website. Just watch the videos and you'll see why.
